Mindieswan - Wednesday, 4 June You seem to be in good spirits though about everything. It's hard loosing people. Just think though, you are bringing in a beautiful litle one that will be a part of your mom and your husband. Hang in there!
I went with elegant and classy. I did not paint the walls or go all crazy. I just put up some nice pics, her name and chose a bedding that is soft colors. in two years when she is old enough to speak, she will tell me what she wants anyhow. lol..
Mindieswan - Wednesday, 4 June I have had to train someone for the entire 8 months. My job is not easy and will be handled by 3 people. Each doing different things. I don't trust a few people with my customers. haha. Not sure why I care if I am not coming back, but just in case.
I am ready to finish up too. My mom and sister are throwing me a shower this weekend (I had one already, but it was for friends only) this is for family. I hope to get the things I still need.
I have saved things to do until I am off work, so I am not too bored. I will finish up setting up the room and get last minute things.
What bedding have you chosen, theme??
Mindieswan - Wednesday, 4 June I will be paid the entire time I am off. I will get 100% for 6 weeks and 60% for the remainder of the time. My 60% will be about the same as 100%, no taxes and my work payd for my insurance. So it will be almost like I get 100% the entire time. I'm lucky to work for a great company that pays.
I also am off on Friday!! YAY.. we have something to look forward to. Have you mentally checked out?
Mindieswan - Wednesday, 4 June Thanks for the encouragement. I will have plenty of time to find something else. Plus, if I take the maternity leave plus the 12 weeks, that puts me out until Mid November. I'm thinking if I find something new, I can just start after the first of the year. That would be nice!
Mindieswan - Tuesday, 3 June I found out why she took them from me. Not only did she get paid on them, but she was up for an award ($5,000 American Express card and an extra week vacation) She needed the referrals to get it. I am over how greedy she is and how she acts. I let it go! What goes around will come around.
I work very hard and I am very valuable to this bank. I do not need to be walked on or treated that way. She will get what is coming to her. I have seen a side of her (money driven) that I don't want to deal with when I come back. I have too much going on...
Mindieswan - Tuesday, 3 June I honestly don't think I am going to come back. I have been talking to my hubby and I think I am going to look for another job. I have been here for 4 years and I think it's time to move on. Soo, I will tell her I am taking the additional time in July. Then, I when it's time to come back, I will put in my two weeks. She has made my life miserable. I think it's jealousy among her just being the two faced person she is.
I refuse to allow her to continue to treat me this way. She has what is coming to her.
Mindieswan - Wednesday, 28 May You're right, you can't!! haha.. I just say as long as my little one is healthy.. i'm ok
Mindieswan - Tuesday, 27 May Keep in mind that the further along you are the less accurate the ultrasounds are for reading size... I was told by the tech that I was measuring 4lbs 8oz's. When I saw my doctor she told me that it was incorrect and she is only just over 3lbs. I have a few people that have told me the same story. I would not worry, they are not that accurate at this stage in your pregnancy
robynj - Tuesday, 8 April Ha Ha Ha, I love Depeche Mode... I'm sure you do too. I could listen to them all day and not get tired of them. My fiance he is 9 years younger than me and just can't get it. I'm glad your mum will be there to at least see her granddaughter. I never thought that my parents would be so excited but I guess being as old as we are they are just releaved that we are having one. I am so excited, I could burst. I just can't wait to see him and hold him. My life changed the day I found out I was pregnant, my fiance hasn't got it yet, but they say after the baby is here we should be on the same page. Well we are almost there, that is exciting - I have elected to have a c-section. I rather have stiches in my stomach than down there. How about you? Hope you have a wonderful day.
robynj - Monday, 7 April My prayers are with you and your mum. I am sure she will make it through to see her first grandbaby. My father had a massive heart attack and passed away twice. He is here with us today and made it through, he is very anxious to see his grandson. Hang in there I know it is hard.
Peace and Blessings to you and your family. Robyn

erin05 - Friday, 28 Mar Here we get three months max to take off without losing our job. I am only gonna be able to take two because I simply can't afford any more time off. I only get five vacation days this year from my work so I will be putting that towards when I am gone. Other than that I am gonna be broke for two months!! You are really lucky to have so many benefits for women there. It is really stessful because I wanna spend so much time with my daughter this is my first child. Unfortunately money is a huge issue right now and I'm not even sure what I will do for those two months with no income...
stephs1 - Friday, 28 Mar We get some leave from work. It depends on the company that you work for. By law they have to give us 3 months but it is up to the company if it will be paid or unpaid leave!!! I know it sucks! I am choosing not go back all together! It just isn't worth it!

happymomma2be - Tuesday, 11 Mar Good luck on your ultrasound...hopefully, the baby will cooperate for you!! We aren't finding out, which is probably good, because everytime I go to my doctor, the tech talks about how active this baby is!! When I had my 'big' ultrasound, the baby wouldn't cooperate to let her see all of his/her heart at first, and it took about two minutes of chasing the baby and wiggling my tummy to get him/her to flip over and let us look! Congrats and God bless!
